Evan's place was a welcome break from the backpacker scene on Khoa San road. Tucked off a small Soi, just down and around the corner from Lumpini metro is Evan's multi-story walk up. This is a basic budget spot, with the typical feautures found in Thai homes such as the combined toilet/shower combo. I saw a few complaints about this in other reviews but I had no issue with the bathroom even in the uppermost bath with the "cold" shower..water just doesn't get very cold in Thailand, so a little cool water is welcome in 100 degree temps. Each day a maid was up bright and early, keeping the many bathrooms, stairs and hallways sparkling clean. Evan is a kind host, attentive, has great info. to share, never intrusive. He gave great advice when I was seeking a good dentist and he helped me out when I had to deal with the unexpected. I really appreciated Evan's kindness and willingness to go way above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. BONUS, several great little local restaraunts. I had the best beef salad in Thailand at the little steak place just across the street.
